Family Comments

I just wanted to leave comments here as to what I learned in the last week. Yesterday morning we lost my mother in law to cancer. With the help of the Hospice nurses, doctors and adies we were able to make her last days and her transission a peaceful one. What I learned though was the doctors in the Oncology area are not geared towards helping someone p **** with dignity and peace they are geared toward treatment as they should be. The two conflict however, we can't get hospice to help unless the doctors actually come out and say, she only has so much time left with us. The doctors don't council the patients or their family in such as way as to really give them a choice, it was basically - You have cancer so we are going try doing some Kemo. Not you have this type of cancer, it has spread to these areas and this is true prognosis, ending with so your options are, to include Hospice care.
